Orange Juice was a Scottish post-punk band founded in the middle class
Glasgow suburb of Bearsden as the Nu-Sonics in 1976. Edwyn Collins formed
the Nu-Sonics (named after a cheap brand of guitar) with his school-mate
Alan Duncan and was subsequently joined by James Kirk and Steven Daly,
who left a band called The Machetes. The band became Orange Juice in
1979. They are best known for the hit "Rip It Up", which reached number 8
on the UK Singles Chart in February 1983, the band's only UK Top 40 hit.

The band released their first singles during 1981 on the independent Postcard
Records label founded by Alan Horne, along with fellow Scottish bands Josef
K and Aztec Camera. Shortly afterwards this line-up signed to Polydor
Records and recorded their first album, You Can't Hide Your Love Forever.
However, internal tensions led to Kirk and Daly leaving in early 1982 (they
would go on to form a short-lived band called Memphis), and for the next two
album releases the core line-up was: Collins and McClymont with Malcolm Ross
on guitar, vocals and keyboards, and Zeke Manyika on drums. By early 1984,
Ross and McClymont had left the band leaving a core line-up of Collins and
Manyika who recorded Orange Juice's final album, The Orange Juice, with
Clare Kenny and Johnny Britten, produced by Dennis Bovell.

The band's only Top 40 hit, "Rip It Up" was achieved with the aid of the
synthesizer.
